The series of adults differs from the majority in a Mexican series before us, in having the tegmina more suffused with brown between the veins, except toward the costal margin. Some variation in this respect is, however, shown by the Mexican series.
The male sex has relatively short stout styles with interval between their bases relatively broad, the dextral style having beneath its base sinistrad a pair of microscopic dccurvcd teeth. The margin of the subgenital plate appears to be somewhat irregular and subject to some indiidual variation.
Our recent remarks on this si)eciesi''^ can not be supplemented until much larger series are secured.
The large immature examples before us are pale and immaculate ochraceous-tawny dorsad, except that the abdominal segments are marked with microscopic and rather distant flecks of ochraceoustawny, while at the latero-caudal angles of the fifth segment are large blotches of mummy brown, the sixth segment being lined at that point along the caudal margin with the same color.
